It has also been described as a small airway compromise in the form of bronchiolitis obliterans. We report a 22-year-old male patient with Stevens-Johnson syndrome due to antibiotic and antiepileptic drug treatment for brain abscess. After the improvement of mucocutaneous lesions, he went to ...

متن کاملBlood Gene Expression Predicts Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome
Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), the main manifestation of chronic lung allograft dysfunction, leads to poor long-term survival after lung transplantation. Identifying predictors of BOS is essential to prevent the progression of dysfunction before irreversible damage occurs. By using a large set of 107 samples from lung recipients, we performed microarray gene expression profiling of wh...
متن کاملBronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) Following Lung Transplant.
The main change seen with BOS is scarring of the small airways of transplanted lung(s). This scarring leads to narrowing of the airways, limiting airflow with loss of lung function. Early after the onset of BOS, a person may not have any symptoms, but will develop breathlessness and chronic cough as BOS gets worse. There are different stages of BOS based on lung function results. Some people de...
متن کاملBronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia.
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is increasingly recognized as an important cause of diffuse infiltrative lung disease. It is a diagnostic consideration in patients with a febrile flu-like illness of a few weeks' duration and a roentgenogram showing bilateral patchy infiltrates that are not responsive to a typical course of antibiotics.
